I don’t know when I became such a Francophile. Perhaps marrying a man with French heritage (and getting his French last name) was the start.
I just bought a set of antique French postcards. I discovered the seller from a blog that I like to read. I love how that happens – you find someone who’s sensibilities and style you admire so you start checking out their links and so on. You find all kinds of fascinating people and interesting things this way.
The types of blogs I like to read are about food, art, travel and my favorite – the blogs were you get a glimpse into the writer’s life and home. There are so many good ones and I get inspiration from all of them. One that I especially like, and who has a lovely sentiment today on this sad, sad anniversary, is Tongue in Cheek.
It would be easy for me to be envious of her life, home and travels but she so generously shares these things that I’m not. I’m just glad to have found her.
I was reading over at Mimi’s place and decided to hop over to visit you. I love your pictures. I immediately thought of Cory and Tongue and Cheek, that you would enjoy her…I see you already do! So, I think you need a trip to France….
I love how we can all connect like this. It seems especially appropriate, somehow, that we have this venue especially as we mark a sad anniversary. It just seems like one more way to share good times and bad.
Thank you, Andrea, for the link to Tongue in Cheek, which provided other links. I’m glad to hear you also like to catch a glimpse of a blogger’s life. I always feel a little self conscious about sharing, as though maybe I am boring people…
